"Your Highness, I have checked everywhere and there is no problem." An Yi hesitated for a moment and then said, "There is one thing I don't know how to deal with."

"What's the matter?" The prince's eyes narrowed.

"The Princess of Nanhua County brought six guards with her when she got married, two of whom were secret guards, lurking in Nanxiang Courtyard."

"Oh, Prince Mo is so kind to his granddaughter. Let's observe her for a while. If she is just protecting the master, I won't do anything. If she has any other improper behavior, I will talk to Prince Mo."

The prince couldn't deal with it immediately because it was the bride's dowry.

"yes."

"The iron box is the key to protecting the opponent. There can be no mistakes."

"yes."

The next morning, Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi came to the main courtyard together, waiting for the daughter-in-law to serve tea.

They gathered together again, but Yu Chaoyang did not come.

Since the doctor said she needed to stay in bed and rest, of course she had to put on airs.

The Lady of Nanhua County was well prepared and everyone had a suitable gift.

The prince and princess also gave the same gift as they gave to Yu Yuanzheng.

What is most unexpected is that the gift given by the third wife is more valuable than any other gift given by others.

A set of top-quality ruby ​​headpieces, a set of eighteen pieces, is worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Even Concubine Luo, the mother-in-law, is not that generous.

This attracted everyone's attention, and the third old lady couldn't help but frown.

She was somewhat dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law for giving this gift.

He didn't say anything, just glanced and then looked away.

"Okay, after the formalities, let's go." The prince spoke and was the first to stand up and leave the main hall.

"Husband, my sister is not feeling well. Why don't you take me to her courtyard to see her?" Nanhua grabbed Shangguan Zishu and asked.

Her innocent smile and round apple face made people feel that she was kind-hearted and really wanted to meet someone.

"Let's go." Shangguan Zishu responded without hesitation.

When Yu Yuanzheng saw this, she knew that Nanhua had won the prince's heart in just one night.

Yu Yuanzheng could imagine what the scene would be like when the two women met.

I heard later that the two did not quarrel in front of Shangguan Zishu, but the Lady of Nanhua County politely called her sister and gave her a gift, but I did not offer her tea.

A co-wife is also a wife, regardless of her age.

Yu Yuanzheng thought about a man marrying two wives. She didn’t know whether that life would be good or bad.

But on the morning of the second day after Nanhua returned home, when she and Shangguan Ziqi came to pay their respects, they saw several women gathered in the princess's courtyard, and they knew that there was something to discuss, and even the prince was there.

"Princess, now that you are pregnant, you don't have to worry about the household affairs of this palace anymore.

Nanhua comes from Prince Mo's Mansion. The housekeeper and director have long learned from Prince Mo's wife, and are much better than Chaoyang.

You should let someone else share the burden."

The second old lady considered herself the elder and spoke as if giving an order.

This is too hasty. He has only been married for three days and he is already trying to seize the princess's position as housekeeper.

The second wife is so poor that she wants to make money from the household whenever she gets the chance.

After the princess’ previous reorganization, the second house could no longer gain any benefits.

Now that there's someone else entering the palace, they want to change someone else to be in charge so that it will be easier for them to take action?

Yu Yuanzheng immediately thought of this possibility.

"Yes, Princess, you are not young anymore, and it is indeed tiring to manage the household. Since Nanhua is not pregnant now, it is just right for her to take charge. It will be the same after you give birth to the child." The third old lady also spoke up to persuade.

"Princess sister-in-law, for the sake of the child in your belly, it is indeed not appropriate for you to worry about our entire family. Why don't you take care of Princess Nanhua for a few days to see if she can do the job?" The Third Lady also expressed her opinion.

Only the Second Lady stared blankly at everyone trying to persuade the princess, and she did not dare to say a word.

"Brother, what do you think?" After listening to what several people said, the second master asked the prince directly.

The prince’s attitude is the most important.

Prince Qi didn't even raise his eyes.

The Nanhua County Lady, who was involved in the incident, was still a little at a loss.

She really hadn't thought about taking over the princess's household duties as soon as she entered the palace, but the elders hadn't discussed it with her, and they all wanted her to take on this responsibility.

But she was willing to become the head of the palace. This was a sign of power.

Yu Yuanzheng looked at this, then looked at that.

Except for the prince and princess who had no expression on their faces, the others all looked very happy to let Nanhua take care of things.

Although she had never managed a household, she thought of the palace as a business. From top to bottom, there were really a lot of things to manage.

There are more than a dozen servants in Prince Dan’s mansion, not including the people in the outside industries.

Others come for etiquette, diplomacy, etc.

It gives me a headache just thinking about it.

"Princess Lu, just leave it to my brother and sister-in-law Nanhua. We will go to the farm together to take care of the pregnancy. The air there is good, there is no noise, and the food is fresh. You can cook it right after picking it from the ground." Yu Yuanzheng thought about it and advised.

The prince has the final say in the entire palace, and from now on the princess can take on the duties of housekeeper whenever she wants.

Besides, it is impossible to hand over the entire palace to Nanhua. At most, she can only take care of the affairs in the inner courtyard. The outer courtyard is managed by the butler Li and his subordinates.

She suspected that even the second and third masters of the palace must know what kind of property the prince has.

When the princess heard her own daughter-in-law also advising her, she immediately smiled.

"Okay, Concubine Lu will go with you. I heard that the hot pot you cook is particularly delicious. Concubine Lu has never eaten it yet." The princess nodded when she heard it.

Everyone looked at Yu Yuanzheng.

Even with so many of them, they couldn't stop Yu Yuanzheng from saying anything.

Yu Yuanzheng was glad that the princess was pleased.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other and felt that they were a pair of people who understood each other.

Now that it was settled, Nanhua began to follow the princess to handle the daily affairs of the palace before he had even adapted to his current status.

The New Year is coming soon. What gifts should each family give? How should we respond when someone gives us a gift?

The princess carefully told her how to arrange the palace for the New Year.

There is no reservation at all.

Nanhua learns quickly and is indeed the daughter of a wealthy family.

And Yu Yuanzheng has been very happy these days.

With the help of Shangguan Ziqi, she opened a third pharmacy in the capital.

The New Year was approaching, and she wanted to check the profits, so she quietly took the account books of each shop back to her own yard and started to do the math.

The more you calculate, the happier you feel.

By the time she had finished settling the bills for the shops and the supplies to the military camps, she was so grinning that she could hardly close her mouth.

"How is it?" Shangguan Ziqi pushed his wheelchair over.

"Husband, at this rate of profit, it won't be long before I count the money until my hands cramp."

"Haha, if you want to count the money, that's not easy. I'll change all these silver notes into copper coins. Even if you find ten people to help you count, everyone will count until their hands cramp." Shangguan Ziqi joked.

"Are you looking for a fight? Who wants to count copper coins? If you want to count, count silver bills. I want to be a billionaire. No, I want to be a billionaire."

"You haven't told me yet, what is the number you calculated?" Shangguan Ziqi laughed.
